Shortcut ownership now lives in `appCommandCatalog.ts`: renderer shortcuts (`useAppKeyboard`) resolve commands from that catalog, native menu events (`useMenuEvents`) emit the same command IDs, and `appCommandDispatcher.ts` owns execution rather than duplicate shortcut facts.
 
 Commands whose availability depends on the current note or Git state must also flow through `update_menu_state` so the native menu stays in sync with the command palette. The deleted-note restore action in Changes view is the reference example: the row opens a deleted diff preview, the command palette exposes "Restore Deleted Note", and the Note menu enables the same action only while that preview is active.
 
+For automated QA, prefer the `window.__laputaTest.triggerMenuCommand()` bridge for native-owned shortcuts and `window.__laputaTest.dispatchAppCommand()` only for renderer-only command paths. Do not treat flaky synthesized macOS keystrokes as proof that a native accelerator works.

+
+## Context
+
+Laputa is keyboard-first, but shortcut execution had split ownership: `useAppKeyboard` handled some shortcuts in the renderer while `menu.rs` owned others as native Tauri menu accelerators. That split made QA unreliable. Browser tests could prove the renderer path, but not the native menu path, and flaky macOS key synthesis made `Cmd+Shift+L`, `Cmd+Shift+I`, and `Cmd+N` regressions easy to miss.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Keyboard shortcuts and native menu accelerators now dispatch through the same canonical app command IDs. Renderer-owned shortcuts call the shared dispatcher directly; native menu items emit the same IDs into the frontend, and tests get a deterministic menu-command trigger that exercises that route without relying on synthesized native keystrokes.**
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Shared command IDs plus deterministic menu-command trigger — keeps native desktop UX while making menu-owned commands testable in unit tests, Playwright, and native QA. Downside: one more command layer to maintain.
+- **Option B**: Move every shortcut to the renderer — simpler automated testing, but worse macOS menu-bar parity and weaker native UX.
+- **Option C**: Keep renderer and native shortcuts separate — lowest code churn, but continues to produce false confidence and shortcut regressions.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- `appCommandDispatcher.ts` owns the canonical shortcut command IDs and the shared execution path used by `useAppKeyboard` and `useMenuEvents`.
+- Native menu routing remains explicit in `menu.rs`; adding or changing a native shortcut now requires wiring the accelerator and the matching command ID in one place.
+- Automated QA can trigger menu-owned commands deterministically through the shared `window.__laputaTest.triggerMenuCommand()` bridge in browser runs and through the native `trigger_menu_command` Tauri command in desktop runs.
+- Keyboard QA should prefer real menu selection or the deterministic menu-command trigger for native-owned shortcuts, and reserve synthesized keystrokes for renderer-owned shortcuts or true end-to-end spot checks.
+- This decision supersedes the blanket assumption in ADR 0020 that all shortcut verification can be treated as plain keyboard-event testing.

+---
+
+## Context
+
+ADR 0050 moved renderer shortcuts and native menu events onto the same command dispatcher, but shortcut ownership still drifted across multiple places: `appKeyboardShortcuts.ts`, `appCommandDispatcher.ts`, command-palette metadata, and `menu.rs`. That made shortcut regressions easy to reintroduce because the same facts had to be updated manually in several files.
+
+The riskiest failures were exactly the native-owned commands that matter most in a keyboard-first app: `Cmd+\` for raw editor, `Cmd+Shift+I` for properties, and `Cmd+Shift+L` for the AI panel. We need one declarative place that says which command owns which shortcut, whether the shortcut is renderer-owned or native-menu-owned, and how tests should trigger it.
+
+## Decision
+
+**Shortcut-capable app commands are now defined in a shared frontend manifest that owns command IDs, routing semantics, and shortcut ownership. Renderer keyboard handling resolves commands from that manifest, native menu routing dispatches the same command IDs, and deterministic QA for native-owned shortcuts targets those IDs rather than duplicating shortcut facts in ad hoc code paths.**
+
+## Options considered
+
+- **Option A** (chosen): Shared shortcut manifest plus shared dispatcher and deterministic menu-command QA. This reduces drift, improves CodeScene on the command router, and makes native-owned shortcuts provable without flaky macOS key synthesis. Downside: one more manifest to maintain.
+- **Option B**: Keep the shared dispatcher from ADR 0050 but continue storing shortcut ownership in separate key maps and menu lists. Lower churn, but it keeps the exact source of the regressions we reopened.
+- **Option C**: Move all shortcuts into renderer-only handlers. Easier to test, but weaker macOS menu-bar parity and worse native desktop UX.
+
+## Consequences
+
+- `appCommandCatalog.ts` is now the frontend source of truth for shortcut-capable command IDs, ownership, modifier rules, and dispatch kind.
+- `appCommandDispatcher.ts` is reduced to route execution instead of carrying a large switch plus duplicated ownership metadata.
+- `useAppKeyboard.ts` resolves shortcuts from the shared manifest, including the distinction between `Cmd+Shift+L` (macOS-only) and `CmdOrCtrl+Shift+I/F/O`.
+- Native-menu smoke tests should use `window.__laputaTest.triggerMenuCommand()` or the Tauri `trigger_menu_command` bridge to prove the native command path. Renderer-only commands may still be proven with direct keyboard events.
+- This ADR supersedes ADR 0050 by replacing “shared command IDs are enough” with “shared command IDs plus shared shortcut ownership metadata are required.”
